Emotional Survival
This presentation is designed to assist law enforcement professionals by the development of behavioral strategies to inoculate against loss of idealism and inappropriate behavior patterns. It will review the short and long-term effects on law enforcement officers on both the personal and professional aspects of their lives. The course will discuss how the initial enthusiasm and desire to professionally contribute can be transformed into negative cynicism, social distrust and hostility to the world at large that significantly impacts the professionals work performance, decision-making and ultimately over-all quality of life. The goal of the course is to have the law enforcement professional review the potential impact the career causes in the personal life and to develop strategies for overall emotional survival. The strategies are designed to permit the professional to continue functioning effectively and ethically without “burning-out” and without resorting to emotional isolation from friends and colleagues.
1:45 pm – 3:45 pm
Paper or Plastic: What Law Enforcement Can Learn From A Grocery Store
In a period of unforeseen and diminishing resources, how can law enforcement maintain a high delivery of their services? Learn how a small, local corporation in the private sector successfully operates and how you can transfer these tools effectively to your public government agency.
For the 7th consecutive year, local family-owned-and-operated Nugget Market, Inc. has once again made FORTUNE Magazine’s listing of the “100 Best Companies to Work For” in the nation. Nugget Market is recognized for its competitive and entrepreneurial spirit, as well as the servant leadership mindset that has guided the company since it was founded in 1926. Leading by example creates a culture that focuses on integrity, a positive attitude, and always respecting, appreciating and valuing everyone, whether it is a fellow associate or guest.
What can law enforcement leaders learn from this local company? Hear from the CEO and President of Nugget Market, Eric Stille as he ‘packs your grocery bag’ with takeaway ideas that can translate into this same kind of leadership within your agency. Stille will challenge you to think differently and encourage you to look for opportunities within your agency structure and organizational design.

Costly Police Personnel Litigation - Can it be Reduced?

They will discuss recent court decisions involving, among other items, issues arising out of POBR, use of social networks, officers use of personal cell phones, Brady issues, and the controversy of voluntary vs. compelled statements by officers in critical incidents. Both attorneys have agreed to provide ample time for specific questions and answers.

A Checklist For Your Next Challenge
If challenges are opportunities, why do most of us complain about them? It’s because they are usually only seen as opportunities after we’ve met the challenge, won the victory or been successful. Tina’s presentation will give you a checklist to use ahead of time to make sure you and your team can feel good about the challenge before you see the final outcome. Along with reality-based information, she’ll bring inspiration to energize you for the afternoon.
Tina Rowe had a 33 year career in law enforcement—25 years on the Denver Police Department, where she retired as a patrol captain and 8 years as the presidential appointed United States Marshal for Colorado. She has trained and presented to thousands of audiences, with a focus on professional and organizational development.
1:45 pm – 3:15 pm

The Occupy Movement: Navigating the Strategies, Tactics and Politics
On September 17, 2011, a protest movement began in New York City that quickly polarized our nation. This leaderless resistance known as Occupy Wall Street demanded immediate change to their perception of the economic and social inequality in our country. This movement which centered on the tactic of camping in public areas until their demands were met created significant issues for law enforcement and politicians alike and soon grew to over a 100 cities across the country.
This is a panel discussion that will briefly address the Occupy events in Oakland, Los Angeles and Sacramento and also examine the tactics, strategies, policy implications and political ramifications of successfully managing this movement.
